Freak Factory

In Freak Factory, you are Agent One of the Galactic Police Force, sent into a large factory where a Professor is creating gruesome creatures across five laboratories.

The factory is explored from the side across two floors, with lifts providing access between levels. Flick-screen environments are filled with hazards including eye-opening Gargoyles, electrified barriers, spikes, and the Professor's flying machine. Each threat can drain your energy, and an empty energy bar ends the game.

Laboratories

Finding a laboratory door changes the game into a full-screen platforming section. Move through each level toward a gap in the floor while avoiding creatures and steam-emitting objects. The Professor's assistants must be confronted and defeated by rapidly waggling the joystick. Defeating an assistant opens a route down to the next level and helps stop the machines.
